How Much Force Can I Get Out of a 2 Inch Hydraulic Cylinder

The force produced on the rod side(1) of a double acting hydraulic piston - can be expressed as

F₁ = P₁ (π (d₂ ² - d_one ²) / four)                                    (1)

where

F₁ = rod strength (lb, N)

d_ane = rod bore (in, mm)

d₂ = piston diameter (in, mm)

P_i = pressure level in the cylinder on the rod side (psi, North/mm²)

• 1 bar = 105 North/mⁱⁱ = 0.1 Nm/mm^two

The force produced on the reverse of rod side (2) - can be expressed as

F₂ = P₂ (π d_two ⁱⁱ / iv)                                   (2)

where

F₂ = rod force (lb, N)

P_ii = pressure in the cylinder (opposite rod) ( psi, N/mm² )
